Case study

European postal operator

Helping a European post and logistics company to develop a technology management capability

Background
One of the central challenges facing the client management team was the optimization of overhead structures to produce a lean and effective group headquarters.

What PA did
PA was commissioned to support this process by helping to construct elements of the corporate IT function, specifically the areas of technology management.

Benefits to the client
Through this program, PA provided the client with the capability to capture and analyze the technology portfolio employed across the group, thereby enabling synergies to be identified and a strategic view on technology standards to be established. In addition, by achieving transparency in the technology portfolio, the client is now in a better position to develop its sourcing strategy and thereby gain improved commercial terms from its suppliers
